Transcribing May-flower By Emily Dickinson [ Photo with Poem / Experiment09 ]

This poem calmly expresses the beauty of May and expresses the artist's unique metaphor. If you read this poem, you feel like the poet is facing nature very closely, which reaches its peak in May. It is said that the beauty of May will soon disappear, but it will remain in place in the human mind.

Emily Dickinson left a lot of poems, and the atmosphere of those poems is mostly heavy and deep, but I think this poem is quite bright and represents the beauty of the season.

After reading this poem, I chose a picture that represents the beauty of a single tulip. This tulip has a very intense red color, so I chose it because I thought it could be connected to a red rose representing May.

Next, you can look at the original text of this poem and look at the picture I transcribed.

May-flower   By Emily Dickinson

Pink, small, and punctual, 
Aromatic, low,
Covert in April,
Candid in May,

Dear to the moss,
Known by the knoll,
Next to the robin
In every human soul.

Bold little beauty,
Bedecked with thee,
Nature forswears
Antiquity.

I made a video that transcribed this poem. I've compressed it into shorts on YouTube, so I appreciate it if you watch it a lot. The pen I used to transcribe this poem is Tombow's Playcolor 2 brown.

I went to my hometown in the country yesterday and today, and it rained a lot for three days. It was very windy like a typhoon in midsummer.

When I took the original photo of the red tulip you see up there, it didn't rain, but it looked like the tulip was turning its head towards someone, so I edited it in the way of Experiment 09 so that the object became a raindrop.




I hope the picture and those drops that look like raindrops go well together.

Thank you for reading my writing well so far. 🙏🙏
